Case Study: Leading Cctv Network And Surveillance Services Provider achieves secure, low-latency nationwide HD CCTV streaming with Thales CN Series encryptors

Leading Cctv Network And Surveillance Services Provider - Customer Case Study

Leading Cctv Network And Surveillance Services Provider, a specialist in secure HD CCTV delivery for law enforcement and critical infrastructure, needed to distribute sensitive high-definition video streams nationwide without the latency, overhead and complexity of Layer 3/IPSec encryption. They turned to Thales and its CN series high-assurance encryptors to meet strict privacy, integrity and regulatory requirements while preserving real-time multicast performance.

Thales implemented Layer 2 Ethernet encryption using CN high-assurance encryptors (managed via Thales CM7), encrypting traffic at the data-link layer to hide IP addresses, avoid multicast routing issues and deliver near‑zero latency. The Thales solution secured traffic from over 100 end-points across Northern Europe, delivered up to 10 Gbps with minimal overhead, enabled zero‑touch key management, reduced network and management costs, and met certifications such as FIPS, Common Criteria, CAPS and NATO while providing 99.999% availability and scalable deployment.
